Beschrijving

Een heel bijzondere rode wijn uit Rías Baixas. Hoewel de Caiño een grote trekpleister is, hebben we deze wijn 10 jaar in de kelder laten liggen. Er zijn maar 300 flessen gereserveerd voor deze release, die laten zien hoe goed hij met de tijd is geworden. Een explosie van rode vruchten en kruiden, met een frisse en lange afdronk

The Wine Advocate:

There is a library release of some reds from Caíño 10 years after the vintage that are the same as the wines sold originally, but they show a sticker with the 10-year mark, so I tasted the 2010 Goliardo Caíño (10 Años en Bodega). The wine was bottled in February 2012 with 12% alcohol and very high acidity (eight grams) and low pH (3.2), parameters that would make you think the wine was going to live a long life in bottle. At the time, the wine fermented in open-top barrels, as volumes were small, and then matured in barrel for one year. The aromatic profile is completely different from the young wines—the peppery notes have faded, but it's still balsamic and a little earthy, in a style that could remind me of a red from Bairrada or a Barolo. The palate is beautifully textured, sapid and tasty, the tannins have been rendered and the acidity integrated. It feels perfect for current drinking. The opened bottle faded over the course of a couple of days, which tells me I'd rather drink it in the next few years. There are only 300 bottles of this library release.
